-------------------------------------+--------------------
 The current CampSite 2017 theme (v.1.0.0) isn't displaying featured images
 for posts or pages.

 There is one place where that's an issue: the "Sponsors" custom post type
 (CPT), added through the `wc-post-types` plugin.

 This CPT expects the sponsors logo to be added as the Featured Image. In
 this way, it can be displayed via the sponsors shortcode.

 This works fine whenever the shortcode is used – in a widget area, or a
 main sponsors listing produced with the shortcode.

 Example of sponsors listing created by the shortcode:
 https://2018.europe.wordcamp.org/sponsors/

 However, the actual "custom post type page" of the sponsor isn't rendered
 with the shortcode, but with the single post template : template-
 parts/content.php.

 That explains why the logo doesn't show up here.

 Example of single sponsor page, created by theme template, where to logo
 is missing:
 https://2018.europe.wordcamp.org/sponsor/bluehost/

 This becomes a problem when a WordCamp site admin wants to link to those
 single sponsor pages – it's an option in the shortcode, "link to the
 sponsor’s post".

 **Workarounds**

 In that case, the site admin will probably add a second logo inside the
 post content, in order to make it show up on the single page.

 This will result in duplicate logos appearing where the shortcode is used.
 This is currently being solved with CSS workaround, that hide the
 duplicate logos on specific places.

 **Proposed solution**

 The optimal way would be to add a template for the "wcb_sponsor" CPT,
 which would show the Featured Image.
